How to plant roses: The cultivation and maintenance of roses

How to plant rosesThe editor will tell you about how to plant roses and the knowledge of green plant flowers about rose cultivation and maintenance. Next, the editor will introduce to netizens.1. Morphological characteristicsRoses are deciduous shrubs. The plant can grow up to 2 meters in height, with thick branches densely covered with thorns and bristles. They have pinnate leaves with 5-9 elliptical leaflets, 2-5 cm long, acuminate at the apex, and wrinkled. Rose flowers grow singly or in clusters of 3-6, with a diameter of 6-8 cm, purple-red or white, single or double-petaled, fragrant: the flowering period is from May to September, and the fruiting period is from September to October.2. Growing habitsRoses prefer well-drained, loose, and fertile loamy or light loamy soil. Roses can tolerate lower temperatures in winter but are not resistant to early spring dry winds. The suitable growing temperature for roses is between 15-24°C.3. Cultivation and maintenanceRoses should be placed in sunny places like balconies for maintenance. Roses are drought-resistant; for ground-planted roses, watering is not necessary during normal times, but water once every 20-30 days during hot summers or spring droughts. For potted roses, water every 2 days, and once a day during hot summers or spring droughts. Ground-planted roses have no strict requirements for water and fertilizer, usually fertilizing 3 times, i.e., fertilizing before flowering, before spring sprouts emerge, preferably with decomposed manure and leaf soil; after flowering, apply decomposed cake fertilizer once to replenish nutrients consumed by flowering; and during the winter, apply decomposed manure once after the leaves have withered to ensure the roses can safely overwinter. Potted roses need to apply a thin fertilizer solution once during the vigorous growth period, and apply once every 10-15 days.4. Propagation methodsRoses are mainly propagated through cutting, grafting, and dividing methods.(1) Cutting propagationIn spring, use 1-2-year-old branches as cuttings, cut to 12-15 cm in length for cutting. In summer, use the current year's semi-woody branches as cuttings, cut to 15-20 cm in length, retain the top 2 compound leaves, and cut in a sand bed. Most cuttings can take root after 20 days, and can be transplanted after 30 days.(2) Grafting propagationUse roses as the rootstock, first cut the 1-year-old rose branches into 15 cm in length, seal the top with wax, and the cuttings are 5-8 cm in length. Graft in winter using the bud grafting method. After grafting, place them in a 25°C environment for 10 days to promote healing of the graft joint and the formation of callus at the bottom of the rootstock branches. Then store them in a room at 4-6°C, arranged vertically, with the top covered with a 5 cm mixture of moist sawdust and sand. In spring, cut the grafted branches for cutting, and after生根, they are planted.(3) Division propagationDig out the small plants around the clump, or dig out the entire clump, cut off most of the above-ground branches, and then divide them into several clumps with a sharp knife for planting.The above [] introduces how to plant roses and the specific content of rose cultivation and maintenance.
